[0001] The Invention relates to a push lead through for gas insulated medium voltage switchgear,
according to the preamble of claim 1.
[0002] The use of one opening spring for all three phases is state of the art in air insulated
switchgears AIS. In that case, no bushing is necessary. On the contrary to that, in
gas insulated switchgears GIS there is one lead through for each phase using different
types of sealing elements. Normally the opening spring is part of the drive mechanism,
the push rod is part of the pole and the lead through is a separate assembly.
[0003] In AIS the lead through has a degree of freedom in radial direction. This causes
automatically an increase of gas leakage. So the use of push lead throughs for GIS
requires gas tightness in all cases.
EP 0 843 330 A2 discloses a push lead trough with the features of the preamble of claim 1. The lead
trough is a cylindrical element, only be fixed in a first housing wall. The further
extension of the cylindrical element is going trough an opening of a further housing
wall, but with extended diameter, so that the cylindrical element can decline under
high mechanical load.
[0004] For that, the object of the invention is, that radial stress on sealing has to be
avoided, and number of sealing elements have to be reduced. These efforts tends to
better tightness.
[0005] So the invention is that the push lead trough is fixed with a bearing and sealing
element at the outer side of the switchgear housing wall, and a futher guiding means
from inside the housing, in order to prevent radial displacement during axial push
rod movement. By that tilting momentum is compensated in that way, that no radial
displacement is possible.
[0006] The opening spring is not part of the linkage system in known systems, and has therefore
to be assembled separately. By this invention the spring force is applied coaxial
to transmission. Reduction from three to only one opening spring, which additionally
results in less assembling time.
[0007] So the problem was solved by the invention.
[0008] Further advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims. According
to the invention, the further guiding means are fixed on a support plate with a further
guide through opening in such, that the support plate is fixed to the inner side of
the switchgear housing at the aforesaid opening in the housing with a distance (R)
from the housing wall itself, in order to block radial displacement by a mechanically
blocking of a momentum of tilt.
[0009] In a further advantageous embodiment is provided, that in the guide through opening
of the support plate is fixed a cuplike element with its open side orientated towards
the inner room of the switchgear housing, and that the cuplike element holds with
its bottom side one end of an axial spring, wherin the springs' long axis is parallel
to the rod, in such, that the rod is surrounded by the spring. So the spring a such
has an also displacement safe position.
[0010] According to the invention, a holding part for the other end of the spring is fixed
adjacently to the aforesaid end of the spring in the cuplike element, and that the
holding part is provided with a ring groove in which the other end of the spring is
positioned.
[0011] Furthermore is advantageous, that the complete push lead through with all aforesaid
elements and parts is fixed in the switchgear housing wall in such, that it is fixed
under active extension force of the aforesaid spring.
[0012] An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing.
Figure 1: side view on the push lead through
Figure 2: perspective view
Figure 3: Detail spring positions
Figure 4: encapsulated spring
[0013] A gastight push lead through consists of a push rod 1, a bushing including bearing
and sealing 2, fixed from the outer side of the switchgear housing wall 9, an opening
spring 3, two spring holding parts 4, 5 and two jointed connections between drive
mechanism, holding part 7, and pole-compartment, holding part 6.
[0014] The cuplike holding part 4 is fixed at the edge line to an opening in the support
plate 8. By that the spring is positionend deeply inside this cuplike holding part
4, so that tilting of the spring axis is prevented.
[0015] The bearing inside the bushing allows only a movement of the push rod in axial direction.
The bushing itself is fixed in all directions. Thus a lateral movement will be taken
by the links 6, 7 and the radial sealing's inside the bushing have to perform only
an axial movement.
[0016] The opening spring can be preloaded in a jig. After pressing it between the two holding
parts 6, 7 a half shell can be set to keep the spring in required length. It can be
used a second half shell and clips together. Thus the outer diameter is shaped in
a way, that the half shell can be stick easily.
[0017] A self-locking nut can screwed on one side to hold the spring for operation mode.
On the other side the holding part will be put in the housing without any fixation
method. This assembly is stockable.
[0018] The groove in holding part 5 prevents buckling of the spring.
[0019] An eye screw connects push rod with links on drive side. It is additional fixed with
a nut. A jaw size on push rod allow putting an open-jaw wrench or another tool to
block the rotation of the push rod during fasten the nut. Thereby no torque is applied
on link connections.
[0020] Figure 2 shows a perspective view on the arranged push lead through with the rod.
By that is visible in detail, how the lead through elements, spring, spring holding
parts are arranged inside the switchgear housing. The support plate is fixed at the
inner side of the wall of the switchgear housing, for example by welding.
[0021] So the support plate is fixed and prevents each tilting of the push rod axis. The
opening in the wall of the switchgear housing has an inner not round contour which
is adapted complementarily to the outer line of a spigot at the bushing and sealing
element, in order to block twisting.
[0022] Figure 3 shows two possible elongation positions of the opening spring.
[0023] Figure 4 shows a possible embodiment, where the opening spring is encapsulated between
the two spring holding parts.
